LNWR/WMR's aim is for the fleet to be as "universal" as possible - i.e. the sets will have a "home" depot and "home" routes, but they can go and work diagrams in different areas if needed, e.g. to cover maintenance of other sets, or if needed for additional capacity elsewhere. So if anything bad happens, then chances are, you've still got rolling stock, route-cleared to go where you need it and a driver that is signed to drive it where it is needed. This should hopefully improve reliability and reduce the risk of cancellations, so a good thing for everyone.

"I'm in Bletchley. At half past 5 in the morning." Ah, good Sir. I see you, too, like to live dangerously!
-
These are the best looking trains in the UK! All we need is level boarding and it would've been perfect!
-
Excellent video! Thanks for having us on (albeit briefly)! ~ Daniel

Many a time at 0530 in Bletchley coming out of Pink Punters in Fenny Stratford
-
nice video, Nick! They're using the West Midlands Railway ones because the LNWR ones arent ready yet is what I've heard!
-
Great video Nick, it was a pleasure to meet you in the Lincoln train yesterday
-
These are looking like nice trains! Hope I can try one out at some point!
-
Thanks for the video Nick! The Class 730's look pretty nice! Hoping to take a ride on them soon!
-
Great vlog Nick. Great to see the Class 730s entering service. At some point these new trains will serve my local station Rugby well at least the London northwestern ones and not these West Midlands Railway ones lol.
-
Good to see you on this day Nick, although i do slightly regret staying in Bletchley station overnight for 4 hours! 😂
-
The 730/0 can only go with 90mph while the duck livery /2 can go with 110
-
Great video Nick and also nice to meet up with you for this trip.
-
4:20 as a Watford resident, I get you...😂😂
-
We are left with the 701, which is older than the 730 but is testing
-
Nice one Nick!! They do look like nice trains and I wish live capacity indication was more common across the network
-
ITS ABOUT DAMN TIME!! 3 years I’ve been waiting for this bad boy ❤️❤️
-
2:15 Oh wow… a table seat where I can sit with my laptop and not have the sun in my eyes! That's a wonderful invention, I wonder if they patented it…
-
Nice one! I am looking forward to doing a Review on one they look very nice!
-
I was glad to go on the first one, I went from Leighton Buzzard to Hemel Hempstead, and I personally loved em 😍
